| First job | Town | Talk to |

| Warrior | Perion | Dances with Balrog |
| Magician | Ellinia | Grendel the Really Old |
| Bowman | Henesys | Athena Pierce |
| Thief | Kerning City | Dark Lord |
Every second-job branch at level 30
Your first job determines which second-job branches you can choose. Return to your job instructor at level 30 and read the advancement options.
| First job | Second-job choices |
|---|---|
| Warrior | Fighter · Page · Spearman |
| Magician | Wizard (Fire/Poison) · Wizard (Ice/Lightning) · Cleric |
| Bowman | Hunter · Crossbowman |
| Thief | Assassin · Bandit |
Choose the branch before buying for it
Treat your level-30 choice as a planning decision. Compare the skills and equipment available in the current game, then buy for that branch. A build written for another MapleStory version may assume different skills or advancement requirements.
If you are still choosing a first job, start with the four class pages and their second-job destinations.
Good questions, quick answers.
